    Afternoon all!

    mary - the sheltered housing your mum was in sounds fab too! I didn't realise there were places like that around - they're not portrayed all that well on TV really! If you ever do decide to go down that route, make sure you have internet access!! lol

    fed08 - good to see you again! I know, this thread is FLYING. I blame the end of december sales! Seems to have slowed down a little now.

    stepmum - ouch on your ankle!! Was your LO's hand ok in that door??

    Milla - fab news about the change of meds. How do they seems so far?

    Cathy/daydreamer2007 - welcome!!

    mum2one - have pmd you about your court visit. Big hugs.

    rufus - well done on your vistaprint orders!

    esmer - hugs to you too! Court isn't nice.

    Real Toothfairy/Lisi - hope your meds are settling! Though I must admit, I do like a naughty unexpected middle of the day nap! lol

    elysia - how do you get on the priority list for the sun holidays?? We had one of the holidays last year, but we're not looking at doing one this year, but would love to next year.....

    Mothership - hi there, no need to officially join or anything, just feel free to contribute! Mum2one and her [STRIKE]sadistic[/STRIKE] :rotfl: lovely daughter Miss Hoodie do us a challenge on the 24th of each month, but it's all pick and mix - chose the challenges you want to do! Just share your bargains, help with quereys, ask for help...it's all great fun, and one of the NICEST boards on here!!

    Hello to anyone I missed!

    I'm trying to get one of those interest free balance transfer credit cards this month - that's my aim. My normal credit card has gone a bit out of control with car fixing/maintaining, petrol prices, general usage (naughty I know!) and I just can't keep on top of it, even though I've lowered my usage! So I need to transfer it all to an interest free one so I can pay some of the ACTUAL balance off! Fingers crossed - currently waiting for Lloyds to get back to me.

    Hope you all have a lovely weekend! Hugs to all! Gentle hugs to those in pain!

  • I've done a few freebie orders from Vistaprint this week - anyone know how many you usually get offered in a year? I may have already had my fair share. Needless to say I've ordered stuff that the kids can buy Grandparents for birthday pressies etc and I've bought my first Xmas 2011 present - a vista print mug with a treble clef on it for my daughters singing teacher.

  • hiya everyone,

    clair, on day three of new meds, full nights sleep, was up for an hour this morning, (son going to school) went back to bed and i've slept till 5.30pm and i'm ready for my bed now, i'm soo tired, but then again i had a very busy day yesterday and didnt get a nap at all so it might have caught up.

    will anyone benefit from inviting me to vista? if so just let me know plz, i'd love to join

    lots of love to everyone

    Hurray -we're back on.

    Hi all. xxx

    Clare - once you've booked one holiday with the Sun, usually you get a priority code, so you can book online, instead of saving the tokens. If you don't get one through next time, there is a list you can put your name on, asking for a code.

    Sorry - I'm so busy lately. I can't seem to keep up with both threads and the fat busting one. It'll die down a bit soon, and I'll be posting more again. ;)

    Happy crafter - I made my goddaughter a cross stitched family tree for her bedroom. I'll see if I can find it and show you. Here it is. Don't buy it from there though (if you like it) shop around you may find it cheaper. I'm only posting to give you an idea. I hope it helps.

    Have a lovely weekend everyone.
    I :heartpuls M.S.E.
